Aeolian dust weights sampled by BSNE collectors quarterly from the CSIS study at Jornada Basin LTER, 2012-ongoing
This dataset contains weights of windblown dust collected by BSNE collectors at long-term observation plots that are part of the Jornada Basin LTER Cross-Scale Interaction Study (CSIS) located at the Jornada Experimental Range. There are 15 experimental blocks (or sites) in this study. Within each block, there are 4 plots with different experimental treatments: 1 control, 1 with mesquite herbicide applied, 1 with connectivity modifiers (Conmods) installed, and 1 with Conmods AND mesquite herbicide applied. The intent of Conmods is to decrease gap size between perennial vegetation. The plots are 8 x 8 meters and have an 8 x 8 meter buffer zone on both the upwind and downwind sides of the plot. There are two BSNE (aeolian dust collector) stands per experimental plot positioned at the edge of the upwind and downwind 8m x 8m buffers. Each stand has 3 collectors positioned at heights of 10 cm, 30 cm, and 50 cm, and all collector openings face the prevailing wind direction. Upwind BSNEs collected the amount of dust entering the plot, and the downwind BSNEs collected the amount of dust moving off the plot. These collectors estimate the effectiveness of the plot surface in obstructing wind blown dust. This study is ongoing with data collected quarterly each year.

Aeolian dust weights sampled by BSNE collectors before and after the windy season from the NEAT study at Jornada Basin LTER, 2008-ongoing
This data package contains weights of windblown dust collected by BSNE collectors at long-term vegetation-removal plots that are part of the Jornada Basin LTER Nutrient and Ecosystem impacts of Aeolian Transport (NEAT) study located at the Jornada Experimental Range. The dataset can be used to estimate horizontal dust flux in vegetation removal treatment plots (different percentage vegetation removed) and contiguous downwind plots. Year 2008 was the initial collection and collections in subsequent years occur before and after the windy season. The experiment was designed to test the effects of increases in wind erosion on soil and vegetation properties on the sand sheet geomorphic unit for different levels of herbaceous cover. In order to increase wind erosion rates, vegetation was removed each spring to increase bare surface area and stimulate erosion (the less vegetation present the greater the wind erosion). The experimental design includes three blocks located in one pasture, each with four treatment plots that are maintained at one of four levels of herbaceous vegetation and small shrubs removed (25, 50, 75, 100%) and a control. Treatment plots are 25x50m with 25m buffers between. The vegetation removal includes grasses and small shrubs (like Gutierrezia sarothrae and Zinnia grandiflora), but not mesquite or yucca or any of the larger shrubs. Also, contiguous downwind plots are monitored for soil and vegetation properties, but no removal treatments are performed in these areas. A control treatment where no vegetation was removed that was not downwind of any treatment is also included. This study is ongoing and is updated twice per year - before and after the spring windy season.
Aeolian dust weights sampled by BSNE collectors in 18 locations at the Jornada Basin LTER site, 1998-ongoing
This data package contains aeolian dust weights from BSNE collectors at 18 locations at the Jornada Basin LTER. Collections are obtained at the 15 NPP study locations, the Geomet location, Scrape study location (now known as GROWES study), and Pasture 13 Burn study location. The collectors are turned into the wind with wind vanes. The amount of material collected corresponds to the horizontal flux at the height of the collector and the opening area of the collector and the duration of the sampling time. The five heights of the BSNE collectors above the soil surface are 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 centimeters for every location where samples are taken. The vertical flux of the particles smaller than 10 micrometers is assumed to be a constant ratio of the horizontal sand flux. The objectives of the study are to find patterns of sand flux rates as related to soil and vegetation. Site info: The NPP sites were established to estimate patterns of aboveground primary production. The Geomet site is within a mesquite-dune area that has had long-term protection from cattle grazing. The scrape site (now known as the GROWES site) was originally designed to measure the abrasion of surface crust. The Pasture 13 Burn site is located in a pasture that was originally burned in 1998. Contact the data manager for additional information and site locations. This data collection is ongoing with new data added quarterly.
BSNE aeolian dust collector sample weights from the three ConMod Pilot study locations at Jornada Basin LTER, 2008-2016
This data package contains measurements of dust collected by BSNE collectors for the Connectivity Modifier (ConMod) Pilot study plots from 2008-2016 on the Jornada Experimental Range. There were 3 sites for this study: Gravelly Ridges, Aeolian, and Dona Ana. Within each site, there were 8 plots. The plots are 8 x 8 meters and have an 8 x 8 buffer zone on both sides of the plot (up and down). There are four BSNE (aeolian dust collector) stands for each plot, 2 in each of the 2 buffer zones (8 collectors per plot). Each stand contains 2 BSNE collectors at a 30cm height with the collection opening at 10cm x 2 cm wide x 5 cm height. These BSNE collectors are in a fixed position pointing into the direction of the prevailing wind, which corresponds to the plot alignment. The collectors in the upwind buffer are facing away from the plot and the collectors in the downwind buffer are facing into the plot. Upwind BSNEs collect the amount of dust entering the plot, and the downwind BSNEs collect the amount of dust moving off the plot. These collectors estimate the effectiveness of the plot surface in obstructing wind blown dust. This study is complete (finished in 2016) and was the pilot study to the newer Cross Scale Interactions Study.
Sediment and organic matter fluxes from the Stream Channel Aeolian Transect (SCAT), McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica (2019-2023, ongoing)
The Stream Channel Aeolian Transect (SCAT) project was established by the McMurdo Dry Valleys LTER during the 2018-2019 austral summer to quantify the seasonal sediment and organic matter flux into stream channels in Fryxell Basin, Taylor Valley, Antarctica. Data collection began in 2019, with annual measurements of total sediment, ash-free dry mass (AFDM), and associated fluxes of sediment and organic matter analyzed each year. The initial SCAT array was installed along Von Guerard Stream during the 2018-2019 austral summer. It consists of six transects, each with eight collectors spanning the length of Von Guerard Stream, with three placed at the down-valley edge of the stream channel, two in the wetted margins, and three at the up-valley edge. In 2022, additional transects were established in Green Creek and Aiken Creek, each with four collectors placed in the wetted margins. These ongoing data collections provide critical insights into aeolian sediment and organic matter dynamics, highlighting their influence on stream channel processes in the McMurdo Dry Valleys.

Major ion and nutrient concentrations of water-soluble salts leached from aeolian material, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica (2013-2016)
To evaluate the role of Antarctic aeolian transport in surface chemistry homogenization, fifty-three samples of aeolian material from the McMurdo Dry Valleys region of Antarctica were collected and analyzed for water-soluble major ions and nutrients at a 1:5 sediment:water ratio. Samples were collected seasonally from Alatna Valley, Victoria Valley, Miers Valley, and Taylor Valley (Taylor Glacier, East Lake Bonney, F6 (Lake Fryxell), and Explorer’s Cove) at five heights (~5, 10, 20, 50, 100 cm) above the surface between 2013 and 2015. This data package is associated with Aeolian Material Transport and Its Role in Landscape Connectivity in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica, published by Diaz et al. in 2018 (DOI: 10.1029/2017JF004589).
Trace metal, ion, and nutrient concentrations in aeolian samples subjected to experimental freeze-thaw cycles, collected from Taylor Valley, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica (2013-2016)
This data package contains measurements of trace metal, ion, and nutrient concentrations in aeolian samples collected from several locations throughout Taylor Valley in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica during the 2013-2014, 2014-2015, and 2015-2016 austral summers. Samples were collected by the McMurdo Dry Valleys Long Term Ecological Research Program (MCM LTER) using Big Spring Number Eight (BSNE) isokinetic wind samplers located at Explorer’s Cove, Lake Fryxell at F6, East Lake Bonney, and Taylor Glacier. Samples were then subjected to experimental freeze-thaw cycles in a controlled laboratory setting to simulate supraglacial weathering processes and then analyzed to understand how freeze-thaw cycles affect nutrient, ion, and trace metal concentrations over time.
